11. Commission and Referral Fees

11.1 You will be paid commission on Net Sales Revenue for sales attributed to your Affiliate Link, in accordance with this Clause 11.

11.2 Commission Rates (tiered)

11.2.1 Base Rate (current calendar year): You will earn a commission of 20% of Net Sales Revenue on Direct Referrals generated through your Affiliate Link during the current calendar year. This applies to annual Net Sales Revenue in the range €0–€19,999.

11.2.2 Tier upgrade to 25% (next calendar year): If your annual Net Sales Revenue generated through your Affiliate Link is €20,000 or more in a given calendar year (as recorded in your Affiliate Dashboard and subject to Clauses 11.4–11.8 regarding refunds/chargebacks/fraud), your Commission Rate will be increased to 25% for the next calendar year.

11.2.3 Tier upgrade to 33% (next calendar year): If your annual Net Sales Revenue generated through your Affiliate Link is €50,000 or more in a given calendar year (as recorded in your Affiliate Dashboard and subject to Clauses 11.4–11.8), your Commission Rate will be increased to 33% for the next calendar year.

11.2.4 Highest tier applies: Where multiple thresholds are met, only the highest applicable tier applies for the next calendar year (i.e., 33% overrides 25%).

11.2.5 Recalculation: Tier status is recalculated at the end of each calendar year based on the immediately preceding calendar year’s Net Sales Revenue generated through your Affiliate Link.

11.3 Attribution window (cookies): Unless stated otherwise in your Dashboard settings, a Direct Referral is attributed for up to 30 days after the most recent Direct Referral click for a customer, or until cookies expire/are deleted (whichever occurs earlier).

11.4 When commission is earned: Commission is deemed earned only when (i) we have received payment in full from the customer and (ii) the transaction has not been refunded, charged back, reversed, or deemed fraudulent during the applicable Refund Period and any additional reasonable verification period used to detect fraud. For the avoidance of doubt, no commission is payable on any refunded transaction (including withdrawals within the 14-day Refund Period).

11.5 Pending period / delay: Commission will be shown as “pending” for at least the duration of the Refund Period, i.e. for 14 days after the order is completed, and may remain pending longer where reasonably necessary for payment confirmation, fraud checks, chargeback risk, or technical reconciliation.

11.6 Payout schedule and minimum payout: Commission payouts are scheduled for the 20th day of each calendar month and include only commissions that have cleared the pending period. The minimum payout amount is €100 (or equivalent). Amounts below the minimum roll over to the next payout cycle.

11.7 Payment method (bank transfer): Payments will be made by bank transfer to the bank account provided in your Registration Data. You are responsible for ensuring that all payment details are accurate and complete (including IBAN/SWIFT/BIC where applicable).

11.8 Bank fees and deductions: You acknowledge that intermediary bank fees, correspondent bank charges, and/or receiving bank fees may apply depending on region and bank policies, and may be deducted so that the amount receivedby you is less than the gross payout amount. We are not responsible for third-party bank fees charged outside our control. Where feasible, we may deduct known transfer fees from the payout amount, or banks may deduct fees in transit.

11.9 Set-off / clawback: If a refund, chargeback, reversal or fraud occurs after commission has been credited or paid, we may deduct the related commission from future payouts and/or require repayment.

11.10 Taxes: You are solely responsible for declaring and paying any taxes on commissions you earn. We may require tax information and/or an invoice/receipt where applicable.

11.11 Changes to commission rates: We may modify Commission Rates or Program rules by providing at least 10 Business Days’ notice where reasonably practicable. You may opt out during the notice period; any earned commissions remain payable subject to Clauses 11.4–11.9 and the minimum payout rule.
